George Piercy
« on: Wednesday 24 October 12 04:22 BST (UK) »
I am looking for the parents of George Piercy who was born 8 Feb 1831, Reading, Berkshire. He emigrated to New Zealand on the ship Egmont in 1856. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Hi Michelle,

The only George Piercy I can see on the IGI is one baptised 26-5-1830 in St.Lawrence, Reading, Berks the son of William Piercy and Ann Maria.

This doesn't help if, as you say, he was born in 1831 unless the earlier one died.

Have you got any more details from his emigration papers?

No info for his Parents on his NZ Marriage or Death Cert?

Marriage Reg;
Sarah FLINT/George PIERCY 1861/3404

Children;
George Arthur 1862
Frederick William 1863
Anna Maria 1865
William Henry 1867
Charles Ernest 1868
John Thomas 1871
Sarah Helena 1872
Henry Herbert 1875

As he names a Daug Anna Maria and a Son William the one Alan gave is a possible.
